Visual Studio Code new config setting in terminal profiles using Cmder - terminal

Question

I am trying to integrate cmder into visual studio code as the default terminal, I used to configure like this in my settings.json.
{
"terminal.integrated.shell.windows": "C:\\Windows\\System32\\cmd.exe",
"terminal.integrated.shellArgs.windows": [
"/k",
"C:\\Program Files\\cmder\\vendor\\init.bat"
],
}
But now visual code is telling me this configuration is deprecated.
So, I started to investigate VSC documentation, and it is saying I should import like this:
{
"terminal.integrated.profiles.windows": {
"PowerShell": {
"source": "PowerShell",
"icon": "terminal-powershell"
},
"Command Prompt": {
"path": [
"${env:windir}\\Sysnative\\cmd.exe",
"${env:windir}\\System32\\cmd.exe"
],
"args": [],
"icon": "terminal-cmd"
},
"Git Bash": {
"source": "Git Bash"
},
"Cmder": {
"path": "C:\\Program Files\\cmder\\vendor\\init.bat"
}
},
"terminal.integrated.defaultProfile.windows": "Cmder"
}
But it is not working... is starts opening the terminal but closes immediately. Is there something I am missing?

You could try like this (leave the rest unchanged):
...
"Cmder": {
"path": "C:\\WINDOWS\\SysWOW64\\cmd.exe",
"args": ["/k", "C:\\Program Files\\Cmder\\vendor\\init.bat"]
}
...
Alternatively, you can also try with:
these paths:
"C:\\Windows\\Sysnative\\cmd.exe"
"C:\\Windows\\System32\\cmd.exe"
these args:
["/k", "C:\\PROGRA~2\\Cmder\\vendor\\init.bat"]
["/k", "C:\\Program Files^ (x86)\\Cmder\\vendor\\init.bat"]
one of the above in a single string instead of two
